What diet? Who ever heard of abstaining from chocolate chip cookies? I can detect the aroma around almost every corner I turn. The whole world seems to conspire against me. Every body's baking them. Every skinny soul I meet is consuming them by the dozen. I figure just one, or even two, or (heaven forbid) even three, won't hurt my calorie counting soul.
I slowly sink my salivating teeth into one chocolate chip cookie. So light, so crisp and chewy, I feel my taste buds go totally berserk. I shut my eyes, savor the sweetness, and let the little chocolate chips roll around inside my mouth. Tantalizing, tickling my taste buds, they take over my chocolate craving soul, mind and body.
How can anyone resist these little critters? What is life worth if one can't indulge a little every now and then? I succumb graciously. If I must lose the battle of the bulge, I must do so with dignity. And relish every moment of it - heart and soul.
Chocolate chip cookies - the words roll magically off my tongue. Who ever invented them deserves a Nobel peace prize. If there were more of them around the world, there would be fewer wars. They would make the greatest peace offerings. You could win over entire battalions of your enemies. They could become your slaves for life. Hostilities would end. Negotiations would flourish. Enemies would become your friends for life.
As is obvious, I am an acknowledged slave of the chocolate chip cookie. I can't bake them myself; I would probably consume the cookie dough before it even hits the oven. And as for those little pieces of chocolate chips, I doubt if they would reach the baking tray. So wisdom prevails and I let my mother, aunt, cousin, friend, anyone, bake them while I become the self appointed official taster. I consider myself quite the chocolate chip gourmet. I have dozens of chocolate chip cookie recipes at my disposal.
I can guide the baker on the best recipes, ingredients, baking tips and temperature setting, although this doesn't always go down well with the baker. However, I have collected these recipes with great enthusiasm, dedication and commitment. I wish some one would appreciate my efforts. I'm even willing to share some of these recipes with other enthusiasts.
Here goes one chocolate chip recipe that I really like. You will need:
o Unsalted Butter - 225 g
o Granulated sugar - 150 g
o Brown sugar - 160 g
o Eggs - 2
o Vanilla extract - 1 ½ teaspoons
o Flour - 295 g
o Baking soda - 1 teaspoon
o Salt - ½ teaspoon
o Semisweet chocolate chips - 270 g
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Cream the butter. Add white and brown sugars and beat until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time. Incorporate vanilla smoothly.
Combine baking soda, flour and salt in another bowl. Combine egg mixture with dry ingredients until smooth. Add chocolate chips half way through. Cover and refrigerate till firm. Meanwhile, line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Drop around two tablespoons of dough at a time on to baking sheet. Bake for around 12 - 14 minute until golden brown around edges.
Cool them. Consume them. Let the experience totally overwhelm you. You will never be the same again.
